addressing my audience

It’s male and female and with a small income either from parents or a part time job. My audience's language is basic but not slang as it’s aimed at a mainstream upper class categories, the layout is quite typical of a magazine in the genre I have picked, bright colours but so they aren’t to over powering. I have a main centre picture of a guy so that I can use that as the main focal point of the magazine so people can be drawn to it because of its colour and size. The cover lines are important they are clear to read and also have a large cover line underlining an artist's name as another pull. The contents page and magazine cover have a very different feel the contents page is very straight and clear cut and good looking, compared to a more relaxed layout for the double page spread. This is so it doesn’t come across as heavy reading, a lot more people find it easy reading because of the easy colour style and layout.
